Paul,
No, I do not believe so. The fuel injection is listed as being
available on the D-500, Adventurer and 300-D, which were all American-built
offerings.
The electric fuel pump was mounted in the rear at the gas tank. There
was an access hole in the floor, with a cover held down with 4 screws, to get at
the fuel pump. The cars with fuel injection used a different fuel
tank than the carburetor versions.
Sounds as if a previous owner had problems with his mechanical pump and
replaced it with an electric one. Same with the choke. That
type of conversion is very common. I had a Valiant that someone had
put a choke cable on it as the auto choke mechanism died. (The same
thing happened to my father's 1955 Dodge Regent 6 - but he just found a piece of
wood that would fit between the bottom of the dash and the accelerator to get
the car to run at fast idle until it warmed up enough to drive. While
warming up, he would clear the snow or frost from the windows of the car.)

hi, does anyone know if the 354
canadian dodge motor came with a fuel injection set up, as this car has a
electric pump on it with a blank where the pump should be, it has a
bracket on the passenger inner fender with a carter fuel pump on it, and
it all looks factory, it also has no choke mechanism on it and has a cable
choke added, many thanks paul.
